Puzzled-Ad-1846 · reddit · 2026-08-09
A developer has open-sourced an MCP server for the Google Health API (supporting Fitbit and Pixel Watch), enabling AI assistants to securely query user health data.
Key Features:
- Offers 29 tools covering 39 data types, including sleep, steps, heart rate, SpO2, and exercise.
- Includes derived helpers like daily/weekly summaries and wellness context, plus MCP prompts to establish a sane contract for agents.
Privacy & Security:
- Local-first and read-only by default; no write tools are shipped to prevent account modification.
- Features three privacy modes (summary/structured/raw). GPS and route data are redacted unless explicitly requested.
Compatible with Claude, Cursor, and other major clients, the tool requires only a free user-configured Google Cloud OAuth client to run.
